1. Give the food its space
Arrange the food in the layer the method calls for. If you increase the portions, check the pan or basket space before cooking so you can keep that arrangement.
2. Plan the chilling step
Read the chilling step before deciding when to start. Make room in the fridge and use the time and sequence in the recipe, so that part does not catch you by surprise.
3. Remember the turn or stir
Set a reminder for the turn or stir mentioned in the method. It is an easy small step to miss while you are getting the table ready.

Review ingredients in your pantry before anything is added. Meal plans use your household size; grocery-only additions use the servings selected above.
The last little job
Keep the last little job in mind
The recipe finishes with this step: Set aside until required. Set out what you need for that finish before the cooking gets busy.
A little more help as you go
Keep the lid step in mind
Have the lid or covering ready before you need it. Follow the covered and uncovered parts of the method in their own order, especially when the finish changes partway through.
Get the oven ready first
Start with the oven-preheating step in the recipe. Then use the preparation steps that follow to get the food ready for the hot oven.
Keep an eye on the broiler finish
The broiler is a separate finishing job. Read that part before serving, get the dish ready as directed, and stay with the finish instead of treating it as another long oven step.
A few questions you might have
What should I get ready before starting?
Set out the baking dish, oven, grill, and food processor. Read the first preparation step before you get going: Combine the Rub ingredients in a bowl.
Which little step is worth remembering?

What check should I look for as it cooks?
Keep this part of the method in view: Bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour 15 minutes, turning once or twice, until the ribs are cooked to your liking.
Is there another preparation step to plan for?
Have the lid or covering ready before you need it. Follow the covered and uncovered parts of the method in their own order, especially when the finish changes partway through.
